7 0

Answer:

Greg opened the door and found his father pacing the kitchen with a worried look in his eye. When he saw Greg, his face broke out into a smile. “Where on earth have . . . ,” he started to say. But then he stopped and pulled Greg toward him in a big bear hug. “Forget it, it doesn’t matter anymore. I’m just glad you’re home,” he said.

Greg looked up at the man he had never understood before. “Thanks, Dad,” he said.

“For what?” his father asked.

Greg smiled, and answered, “Everything.”

in what other circumstances can the dangers of mob rule and mass hysteria be seen as giving rise to grave injustice
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The Crucible explores how mass hysteria can devastate a community. Hysteria is most clearly seen in the villagers' irrational acceptance of the girls’ fabricated claims of witchcraft. One specific example of hysteria occurs in Act III when the girls, led by Abigail, accuse Mary Warren of witchcraft to prevent her from testifying against them. Though multiple people (including Mary) have claimed that the witchcraft accusations are false, the court refuses to be swayed.Mass hysteria is a social phenomenon where imaginary fear and anxiety spread uncontrollably throughout a population. Throughout the play "The Crucible," hysteria regarding witchcraft spreads through the community of Salem and results in the numerous deaths of innocent victims. Following the initial accusations, Abigail and the other girls falsely testify that certain individuals are involved in witchcraft and have begun to curse community members. During the trials, each girl feigns illness and gets caught up in the hysteria. The girls follow Abigail's erratic behavior and actually believe that they are being attacked by a person's spirit. Nowhere is hysteria more evident than in Act Three when Abigail mentions that there is an invisible bird flying throughout the room and begs Mary Warren not to hurt her. The other girls join Abigail and begin to repeat everything that Mary says. Mary becomes terrified and joins the hysterical girls as they begin to accuse John Proctor of colluding with the Devil. During her hysterical fit, Mary Warren says, "He come at me by night and every day

to sign, to sign, to-" (Miller, 121). The hysteria creates a tension filled atmosphere, which angers Proctor to the point of saying, "God is dead" (Miller, 122). Unfortunately, the court officials believe the hysterical girls and sentence many innocent individuals to death.

In Othello act 1 scene 3 line 100 “such a snipe” refers to ?
elixir [45]

Answer:

OTHELLO

Explanation:

Iago hate Othello. The main reason Iago gives for plotting to destroy Othello is a suspicion that Othello may have had an affair with Emilia.

Thus do I ever make my fool my purse.

For I mine own gained knowledge should profane

If I would time expend with such a snipe

But for my sport and profit. I hate the Moor,

And it is thought abroad that ’twixt my sheets

325He’s done my office. I know not if ’t be true,

But I, for mere suspicion in that kind,

Will do as if for surety. He holds me well.

The better shall my purpose work on him.

Cassio’s a proper man. Let me see now,

That’s how I always do it, getting money from fools. I’d be wasting my skills dealing with an idiot like that if I couldn’t get something useful out of him. I hate the Moor, and there’s a widespread rumor that he’s slept with my wife. I’m not sure it’s true, but just the suspicion is enough for me. He thinks highly of me. That’ll help. Cassio’s a handsome man. Let’s see, how can I

At the end of ali and the magic stew, what dose ali decision to put his ars around the beggar to steady him show about ali
frez [133]

"Ali and the Magic Stew" tells us the story of a very rich boy named Ali, whose father is sick. Ali meets a beggar and the man tells him that the only way for his father to get better is to make him a stew with money he begs for in the street. Ali is a very proud child, and he is embarrased by the idea of doing something like that. However, as he goes through the experience, he becomes humble and is able to feel more empathy for poor people like the beggar.

This is exemplified by the fact that Ali puts his arms around the beggar to steady him. Ali has now learned that he is not superior to other people, and he is willing to help those in need.

In this excerpt, paine uses hyperbole to
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Hyperbole is used for emphasizing.

Explanation:

Hyperbole is a figure of speech which is used for emphasizing and expressing exaggerated statements or claims.

Two most famous hyperboles in <em>Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" </em>are:

<em>"Tis not the affair of a city, a country, a province, or a kingdom, but of a continent – of at least one eighth part of the habitable globe."</em>

<em>"Tis not the concern of a day, a year, or an age; posterity are virtually involved in the contest and will be more or less affected, even to the end of time, by the proceedings now"</em>

By using <em>hyperbole</em>, Paine in this text addresses the “cause” of American independence and pushes people into thinking about deserved freedom for the whole world, which has to be done at that same moment, both for the present time and future time.
